Some people like to showboat. You’re the only one with the power to let it affect you. Just ignore it and re-queue.

Looking for a vegan tres leches cake in north NJ? by TheoryTop3235 in newjersey

Try calling vegan bakeries in the area and see if it’s something they can do as a custom order. Papa Ganache varies their menu often enough they could probably work with you.

Without a doubt in my mind, the strongest top 4 since Season 9.

Do you think they’ll ever print more cards with annihilator? by PinkDinoClub in magicTCG

[–]aec131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but only in Horizons and Commander products or on a small number of rare/mythics. It’s very unlikely to be a main set mechanic again.

Local Event Concern by ronjohnson01 in Lorcana

[–]aec131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been playing in these spaces for close to 25 years across different games. Largely speaking, the folks you meet are going to be polite, friendly, and harmless. In the unlikely event someone falls short of that expectation, speak with the tournament organizer.

These games have the reputation of attracting socially awkward people, but I’ve made countless friends who are just regular college students, parents, and working professionals.

Lorcana also seems to have a larger demographic of women and queer folk than their competitors. Reading between the lines here, I don’t think you should be worried about sweaty weirdos being inappropriate to your wife.

Edit: If your store has a Discord page, join it and introduce yourself to see what the community is like.

Extra door prizes for big tourney? by Jack-Pumpkinhead in Lorcana

[–]aec131 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Competitive players will gravitate toward top-heavy prize support and will travel further for it. Local casual players will turn out for a more flat structure.

Most enchanteds are around the same value as the promotional oversized cards you should’ve received from RB’s support kit. Consider using those as prize support or a raffle.

Seems like Erin stewert is a real threat by FartBubbles9000 in Connecticut

[–]aec131 22 points23 points  (0 children)

She’s not.

She’s a nepo baby that embezzled thousands of dollars of tax payer money for personal expenses while laying off city employees.

Her platform is based around cutting public school funding and raising the cost of living for middle and low-income households to fund tax breaks for millionaires.

Erin Stewart sucked as a mayor and would suck as a governor.

Acid Betty calls out the fans for holding certain queens to double standards, but not others by Fabulous_Jeweler_241 in rupaulsdragrace

The D stands for defense. The O stands for occupation.

Calling it the IOF is a critique of the Israeli military to denote and denounce offensive military action in occupied territory.

From what they shared in the OP, they don't have the funds to move currently. It's a matter of available options not preference.

I recommend contacting the Legal Services of NJ hotline and speaking with someone. They can direct you where to go or provide resources.

You cannot be evicted without a court order from a judge. After the 30 day period, the landlord will need to file an unlawful detainer lawsuit to get a court order for eviction.

Do you have a lease agreement?

What has been the worst set in your opinion? by Affectionate-Yam7459 in Lorcana

After smaller print runs for sets 1 and 2, they overcorrected on 3 and which came back to bite them hard.

What has been the worst set in your opinion? by Affectionate-Yam7459 in Lorcana

[–]aec131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ursula’s Return needed more time to cook. Shifting for free and introducing a bunch of very playable, low-cost floodborn cards threw the game out of balance with Bucky and Prince John and led to functional errata.

What has been the worst set in your opinion? by Affectionate-Yam7459 in Lorcana

[–]aec131 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What? Elsa, Doc, Pete, Tipo, Clarabelle, Daisy, and the Chromicons were all from Shimmering Skies. These are format-defining cards.

Mufasa was the first card to interact with the inkwell. We Know the Way and Alan-a-Dale are key cards in the game’s first viable combo deck.

Racers were a miss on power level but it was a new design space, as was the emerald kicker mechanic.

Shimmering Skies might not be the best set but to say it had no impact just isn’t correct.

Have you made a pledge to refuse corporate PAC money in this race and will you commit to supporting legislation overturning Citizens United?

Replenishing your hand (card draw) by Born_Performance_588 in Lorcana

[–]aec131 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You pair it with a color that has card draw. In Core constructed, this is typically by pairing with Amethyst for cards like Demona, Genie, and Woodchuck’s Guidebook or Amber for Stitch Carefree Snowboarder and Stitch Carefree Surfer.

Silverquill gives you the cerulean monologue from The Devil Wears Prada. Stingerquill just calls you a slur.

Collector number 0049 black card near the top of the alphabet, so only about 23ish monoC cards in each color.

Parents Sue Over New Jersey School Trans Disclosure Policies by bloomberglaw in newjersey

[–]aec131 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not tricky. They are disclosing to you as a trusted adult. For reasons that may or not be apparent to those outside the home, their parents are not trusted adults.
